Wild Triple-Turbo Setup Is Unlike Any We've Ever Seen

Other than that, it looks like an Australian domestic market Commodore VL wagon with an all-stock interior and not many other modifications.

The turbo setup itself, while ridiculous, appears well put together. It's fairly complex, too, since they manage to conjure a way for all three turbos to supply each other with air. They made a compound turbo setup that contrasts the sequential tri-turbo engines of the oldBMW 5 SeriesM55d sold from 2012 to 2017.

On usual compound builds, a larger low-pressure snail will feed a smaller high-pressure turbo since the output hole of the larger unit should ideally match the inlet size of the other. The latter is crucial for optimal pressure transfer.

Theforced inductionsetup these mad Aussies built did the reverse. We don't know if it makes big power since they drove it on public roads. But at least it sounds great and even spits out flames. Then again, they ran into an overheating issue which they funnily addressed by filling its radiator with a bucket of water.

Obviously, this wasn't a serious project. It was instead made in the spirit of fun, just like the ridiculously low Fiat that was nothing more than acar roof on wheels. Plus, the triple turbo build isn't complete yet, so that they might have more plans for this crazy Commodore.
